Thanksgiving Football!

Seymour v Woodland - This is one of the better rivarly games on Turkey Day. These two teams have found a strong dislike for eachother in a short time. Seymour should come out on top, if they don't take them to lightly.

SH v Wilby - The hearts finish winless in 08.

HC v Wolcott - I like this as my upset special. Wolcott should win easily, but I like HC playing at home.

Watertown v Torrington - The Raiders win this one, sending the message for next year.

Crosby v Kennedy - Believe it or not I think Kennedy gives them a hell of a game. I'll take Crosby in a squeaker.

Ansonia v Naugy - Plasky coaches his but off in this one, doing everything he knows how, and only losing by 40.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Does Kennedy Stand A Chance?

I would have to say this match up is proof there should be no league title game. Ansonia already beat this team head to head, quite handily. How many of you will actually go to this game to watch Ansonia claim another title in the first half. I understand that the game represents the best of the Brass against the best of the Copper. However, is Kennedy really the best? Seriously, if you tell me that this game has any merit at this point, I would disagree with you heavily. Let's hear your predictions on the game and if anyone is up for it, please make an argument on why this game should be played.

Big Win For Ansonia. Who will they play next Thursday?

Ansonia dismisses the Cats and look to remain the NVL Champs. I am one who thought Seymour would prevail in this one, but once again I got it wrong. I wasn't there, had work commitments, but I want to hear from you guys about the game. Two questions; 1. Did the better team win? 2. Now that they played each other, do you take Roberts or Osiecki?

Woodland @ Kennedy tonight! I see the Hawks taking this one and facing the unfortunate opportunity of playing Ansonia again. ATTENTION AD's: Ansonia already beat them head to head. Get rid of this stupid game!!!

Comments?

WEEK #10 and I'm not holding back.

Right now Seymour sits on top of the league as the team to beat. No one has been able to do it yet, including the great Crosby Bulldogs. Ansonia must still be wondering what he heck happened. As good as Crosby is, very few of us really that they would win that game. But, because they did, I think this week is even more interesting than it would have been.

Seymour @ Ansonia - You have to think it is improbable for Ansonia to lose two in a row. They are not the type of program to go in the tank after an embarrassing loss, so I see them looking to come out and make a statement against the only 9-0 team in the league. Seymour will be looking very hard at the film from last week and investigating exactly how Crosby held them to only 14 points. This is Spoony's final dance and nothing would give him more joy than to beat Ansonia before the music stops. I like Seymour in this game. Not because Ansonia lost last week, but because I believe Seymour is the best team in the league in 2008. It will be close, but not tight. Seymour 35 Ansonia 21.
HC @ Naugy - The Crusaders should win this game. Not because they are playing well or anything like that, but because of the Plasky factor. Rumor has it this guy is telling people he wants to coach college football, COULD YOU IMAGINE. Cross by 20.
Watertown @ Wolcott - Watertown takes this one, want to know why? Wolcott posted on their website that this is their first seven win season since the 80's. That is the type of thing that lesser programs settle for and brag about. Look for the Eagles to lose their last two, miss the playoffs and have a 7 win moral victory parade. Indians 40 Eagles 28
Woodland @ Kennedy - Wow, championship at stake. Let me repeat, championship at stake. Who'd a guessed these two teams would playing for a shot at the NVL Title. Because I am not a big fan of the NVL Title Game, I'm going with Woodland on this one, so that the WRHS vs. SHS Thanksgiving Eve game doubles as the championship. Woodland 28 Kennedy 20.
Wilby @ Crosby - Unless Crosby's starting offense oversleeps, I'll take the Bulldogs 49 - 12.
Torrington @ S.H. - The Red Raiders should win this game and SH has to win at least one, right? Well I don't think THS will hold on in this one. The Hearts will come up with a win, finally. SH 20 THS 19.

Now let me know how way off base I am, please.

Hats Off To Crosby!!

I was wrong!! I will not hide. I will give credit where credit is due. In this case, a lot of credit. Crosby, for the first time ever, has shown they can play in a big game. I wasn't there and I don't know what factors may have contributed to this outcome, but I don't care, Crosby won and good for them. This does beg the question, how on earth does Wolcott beat Crosby or Woodland put like 300 yards and 28 points of offense on them and Ansonia only puts up 14 points? Crosby's D-Coordinator should be promoted to the Head Coach of the New York Giants. Congrats to Crosby.
I had the pleasure of taking in the Woodland @ Naugy game. Woodland absolutely dominated in this game, IMHO. Naugy should have hired Coach Shea when they had the chance. Plasky shouldn't be coaching tee ball. Worst play calling I have ever seen, including pop-warner.
Let's here about the other games you guys saw.

Back In Action For Week 9

Sorry about the absence fellas. I had major PC problems last week and had to purchase a new machine. It won't happen again. Now on to Week 9.
Wolcott @ Wilby - Eagles win this one and keep the playoff hopes alive. 40-0.
Ansonia @ Crosby - Ansonia wins this game 10 out of 10 times. Ansonia Football was built on these types of games and they know how to bury a team that lacks the substance to survive a big game. 62-28.
Seymour @ Watertown - No way these Indians are pullin this one off. Come on Week 10. 48-20.
SH @ HC - Upset special. Hearts win, yes I said win. 20-14.
Woodland @ Naugy - I'm calling this the game of the week. At least this game has division championship implications, no matter how sad that sounds. I'm givin Woodland the win because Naugy still has Plasky. 28-0.
Torrington @ Kennedy - That Woodland loss is really haunting the Raiders now. If they pulled that one off, Dunaj would be playing for a banner in his rookie season. Raiders Win. 35-13.
